The Northern and Southern Lights are like a show in the sky. They happen when particles from the Sun zoom down to Earth, and they bounce off gases in the atmosphere. This makes the sky light up with colors, green, red, purple! It's like a magical dance between space and Earth.
Examples
- A child sees green lights dancing across the sky like fairy lights at night.
- A person camping in Alaska sees a red light show above them while telling stories around the fire.
- During a storm, the whole sky turns purple and blue from the lights.
